Winter frolicking in Happy Valley

Thanks to my friend Mike Dooris for pointing these out to me, from this morning's Centre Daily Times:


Police also responded, at 5:37 a.m. Saturday, to a report of a young man “frolicking in the snow, wearing only his underwear,” in the 300 block of East Foster Avenue.

Police said the man left the area before officers arrived. 
One wonders who was more drunk, the underwear-clad frolicker, or the person who supposedly witnessed this and called the police.



A Philipsburg man who was attempting to start a fire in a fireplace was flown Monday to a burn center in Pittsburgh after his clothes caught on fire.
According to state police at Rockview, Rodney Curtis, 49, of 1012 Locust St., suffered from burns to the upper part of his body and face. Police said Curtis was trying to use gasoline to light the fire at 5:30 p.m. when the gasoline ignited, lighting his clothes on fire and engulfing him in flames. Family members put out the fire, police said. 
He's never heard of newspaper and kindling?
